Hi All, I just thought I would share pictures of my iPhone 5 mounted in my PiP using the Proclip left vent mount and holder. Some notes: The Proclip uses your own lightning cable. Since it's white, I used a black sharpie to "paint" it black I ran the wire along left vent/door edge so it's not that visible I popped the cup holder up and ran the cable through and then back into the USB jack. There was enough room at the bottom so I didn't have to cut anything to allow the cable to pass through
That's a really nice setup Frank. Can you please post a few more pictures showing how your ran the cable up to the vent?
Very nice! And I'm guessing you had no problems with the connection due to the cable's extended length?
Sorry, I never saw these questions when I originally posted: To remove the cup holder: Lift the armrest up. Then from the inside of the cup, pull up and slightly towards the rear with increasing pressure. It's held down with 4 clips so if you put enough umph, it will pop out pretty easily. I didn't notice any loss in signal using the small USB extender cable. It sounds much better connected in iPod mode through the cable than through BT Audio link I ran the wires by simply pushing them in between the dash and the left hand side frame. Nothing special.
That looks very nice. I did a similar install a short while ago with the ProClip for my Nexus 4. I used the left mount like you did and then ran the power inside the dash down to the fuse block and put in a 2A fuse for the phone. This way the USB is still available for a flash drive that stays in the car.
